A smile!
This was progress! The eighteen year old clapped her hands together in excitement and nodded her head. "Brilliant!" Baking alone just wasn't as fun, y'know? "Do you mind if I tidy...that up first?" The cement-like concoction? Ella figured starting with a clean surface would be beneficial. "That way we have more room to work."
Josette bit at her bottom lip nervously again when she noticed Ella looking at her curiously. She nodded her head when Ella had decided she would call Josette by her nickname.
"Should...Should I call you something...different than Ella..or?" Only because she was going to call Josie by her nickname, would it make it fair to call her something other than that? Did she have a nickname? Or would she just rather be called Ella? Whatever she wanted! She didn't want to upset the bigger girl! Otherwise, Josette would be forced to hide under the table.
Ella suddenly started clapping & Josette immediately jumped not expecting that. Judging by the the blonde's eager reaction, she guessed maybe the big girl was happy Josette was going to bake with her? Josette turned her head looking at her cement bowl again as Ella asked if she could clean up her mess before they started. Before Ella could do anything Josette was immediately interjecting saying nervously,
"Oh no no no. I..I um..made the mess..." She began to look around the kitchen a bit frantically for towels, rags or something to clean up this flour she had gotten all over the table & floor.
